Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of Functional Murine Cardiac Myocytes From Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to characterize the cardiac differentiation potential of a murine iPS cell clone in comparison to a well-established murine ES cell line, and found that iPS cells differentiate into functional cardiomyocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Cord Blood

TL;DR: The generation of human iPSCs from cord blood (CB) as a juvenescent cell source is reported, showing characteristics typical of embryonic stem cells and can be differentiated into derivatives of all three germ layers, including functional cardiomyocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Murine and human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiac bodies form contractile myocardial tissue in vitro

TL;DR: BCT with contractile forces comparable with native myocardium can be generated from enriched, PSC-derived CMs, based on a novel concept of tissue formation from non-dissociated cardiac cell aggregates, which represents a major step towards clinical applicability of stem cell-based heart tissue for myocardial repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bulk cell density and Wnt/TGFbeta signalling regulate mesendodermal patterning of human pluripotent stem cells

TL;DR: Modulating the bulk cell density (BCD) deterministically alters anteroposterior patterning of primitive streak (PS)-like priming of hPSCs, demonstrating a decisive, functional role of the BCD and showing its utility as a method to control lineage-specific differentiation.
